Why? I think e-shifting may be more beneficial for the more challenging terrain in gravel riding than for road riding. E-shifting is also cheaper for 1X. And if the road bike snaps a RD shift cable, I can call my wife or Uber XL. If the gravel bike snaps a RD shift cable, I may have to walk a while before I can get a ride.
